4,Change all links :http://nhamngahanh.blogspot.com to your own blog address .Change link of each category in topbar,menubar,footer and change the subscribe address to yours.

5,if you want to change image or logo to yours ,just make your own logo or image and put the link in template file .

6,I noted the meaning of some variables in xml file ,so if you want to do more ,or tweak this template ,you can change these variables . Whatever change is up to your demand ,so I don't mention it here . You can read the xml file and modify it or contact me in comment form .

7,Open the blogspot dashboard . Come to Layout tab ,continue to Edit HTML ,and upload the xml file to blogspot .

How to use :

1. Breaking news section is a place where headline is posted . I make this for owner of magazine can updated news in minute . To post in Breaking news section ,just named label for your post "breakingnews"

2. Section in right-hand of breaking news for news . To show your post in this section ,just added label for your post "news"

3.To show image on gallery ,you added image in your post (one image is allowed ,do not insert more than one image in a post because gallery only show the first image in each post ) and named label for the post "gallery".

4.Subnews section is under gallery section ,it show the newest posts in each label . To change the label and post showed in each label ,open the xml file and find out code in this picture

Change these to labels you need

It's my second template . I don't know how to write using and setup instruction to fit your needs . So if you have any trouble or error in using ,just comment here .
